Roy Keane's daughter has revealed how the Manchester United legend has helped her come to terms with being diagnosed with lupus.

Caragh Keane, 29, was diagnosed with the autoimmune disease that causes joint pain, skin rashes and tiredness four years ago when she was just 25.

She had just landed her first teaching job at the time, but was forced to turn it down after being left bed-ridden by the illness.

After a series of tests Caragh was diagnosed with lupus, and admitted it was difficult news to process as she considered how her life would change.
